    I'm surprised there isn't a topic yet. I don't own this yet, but I think I'll ask for it for Christmas.

      I've seen this in the store, and watched the commercials. But I still don't get all the hype. I know it has something to do with multyplayer, right?

          I got it from a 'friend' for free *cough* to try for a while. Haven't been able to get it to work though because I'm missing an important 'key' to the software. *cough* <.<;

          But yeah, my video card sucks, so I'm not sure how well it'll run. But my friends video card sucks more, and it works for him, so I'm hopeful.

            Next shooter I get. Portal is alone a reason to buy it, but like 4 games in one? Team Fortress 2 looks amazing, never played Half Life so that could be fun, the only thing it doesnt have is the original half life.

            Totally worth it.

              Yeah. It's stupid fro me to say that I'm into PC gaming but have never owned a Half-Life game.

              But never fear, for The Orange Box is here. It has the original Half-Life as well as episodes 1 and 2.

                I've played the original Half LIfe at lan parties, and I loved it. I've never played the single player though.

                  Team Fortress 2 looks awesome. Go on gametrailers and search ' Ignis Solus'. Awesome video about TF2.

                    Orange Box <3

                    But seriously, I got it a few weeks ago, and it's pretty sweet. I've never tried Half-Life before it so it was a chance buy, but I think it was worth it.

                    Portal also dragged me into buying it.

                        Portal was such a fun game. The fact that you can shoot portals can make life so much easier [to get to places and to rob banks/etc unless blocked]. Some of the puzzles were such a loophole for me, but I always wouldn't mind to speed run. =3 Hm...speed runs are fun. *Waves Orange Box*

                          It's not Portals. It's just Portal.

                          I didn't find the main game too hard, but the advanced chambers are actually a bit tough.

                            I know it's Portal, but the 's' just gets stuck when your shooting portals all over the place. =\ Merf.

                              I did all six out of six, however, they were a bit hard, especially test chamber 17 in advanced.

                                      If I want a highly rated game, i'll buy it myself. My parents never get me stuff with good reports. Instead of praising me for good stuff, they scorn me for bad stuff.

                                      I really do want the orange box. COD4 isn't my type of game, so I might be getting this next.

                                        Why can't you buy Portal yourself?

                                        Wait, I'll answer my own question and say that you'd need a credit card to buy it online and you don't have one. That's why you need your mom.

                                        You could still try to buy Orange Box yourself. If you're lucky, the register person will let you have it without ID. :( I bought Crysis and Bioshock this way. I'll be 17 soon anyway...

                                          Can you buy Orange Box games seperately? Except on Steam, of course.

                                            You can with the Half-Life 2 and episodes in retailers I think, though I haven't been LOOKING for them either. I don't think Team Fortress 2 is in retailers.

                                              Why can't you buy Portal yourself?

                                              Wait, I'll answer my own question and say that you'd need a credit card to buy it online and you don't have one. That's why you need your mom.

                                              You could still try to buy Orange Box yourself. If you're lucky, the register person will let you have it without ID. :( I bought Crysis and Bioshock this way. I'll be 17 soon anyway...


                                              You are correct about that. I need to buy it from Valve's website. Plus, why spend your own money when your parents can spend it?

                                              I need someone to take me to the store so I can buy Orange Box. :P

                                                I feel sorry that you can't buy M games at your age. They're not even restricted.

                                                  At least we're not in the UK where you have to be 18 to buy certain retail games. Here the highest rating is 17 for a retail game.

                                                  But then again, a lot of our games are censored...

                                                    TF2 is unbalanced, Portal is too hard on the advanced challenges. The only parts i like about OB are the Half Life parts. Everything else is utter bollocks.

                                                      They're called advanced challenges for a reason.

                                                        But they're not like the other levesl where you just have to think about it, you have to have amazing reflexes to get through them.

                                                        TF2 is good but oh my god the lag makes me want to eat my eyes.

Well the guy giving the lessons was one of the head software engineers at VALVe responsible for hiring people, and he offered my dad and I a tour of their facility!

                                                                    And yes, I know for a fact that the guy is what he says, because he had a buisness card with VALVe's logo on the front and back, and their signature picuture of a guy with a valve on his head on the back.

I liked having the ending left open, not knowing if Chell died or survived, and ending the story there. No announcement of Portal 2, no clarification on her death/passing out, nothing. That's what I wanted.

                                                                            And Valve ruined it for me!

If one player shoots a green portal, the other player's portal disapears. And both players can enter all three portals.

But that would make a three-way portal, and if you tried to go through it you'd get split into two, which would create a paradox. Ah, fudgecakes!

The green and and red are connected and orange and blue are connected, so co-ordination is required.

It's a good game, but I dont see why everybody loves it so much. I've heard people saying ' even if it was the only game in the orange box it would still be game of the year' which I cant understand. Meh, just a clash of opinions.

                                                                                                          Not to mention GlaDOS and the companion cube.

                                                                                                                  Actually first time I faced the boss I threw the last part of it in the furnace just as I died so then I did the whole thing again.

                                                                                                                                    Tom have you heard about portal 2? It's probably going to have co-op. Hahah, that would be awesome, dropping you into a turrets line of fire.

How did you get the long jump achievement?

I cant remember how long it was, I just kept going until I got it. But say the room is 10ft tall, and the achievement, is what, 20000 feet? And it takes half a second to fall 10 feet, so 1 second to fall 20 feet etc...work it out from that.

                                                                                                                                                      I have been falling for over 4 minutes now.

And for the cameras, you have to go through from 1-19 getting every camera, and if you miss one you have to start again.

I used gamefaq to know how to do one or two puzzles that seemed impossible but even then, they were still preatty hard.

You've missed out on a major gaming milestone Tom.
